Recalibrating Speakers after break-in

I purchased my speakers and calibrated them, thanks to the help I received on this board, about 4 months ago. Since by now they should be broken in, is it normal to recalibrate the speakers? Just wondering. This is still one my best purchases and the WAF is all good.

    I usually re-calibrate my speakers every 4-6 months. My system is located in my living room and between moving furniture to vacuum and other variables, the system needs to be adjusted slightly.

    Also, consider not only recalibration when you move speakers around, but furniture as well. Just moving furniture around and re-arranging the room in other ways than messing with your speaker placement can change reflections significantly.
